‘Making Wave Power Work’ campaign for Marine Power Systems (MPS) and their WaveSub (above), 2017.

MARINE POWER SYSTEMS: ’Making WAVE POWER WORK’

Marine Power Systems (MPS) is a wave power engineering company based in Swansea, South Wales. Throughout 2016 & 2017 the organisation needed to strengthen its brand and increase investor confidence in the British wave power sector in the run up to at sea testing of their ‘Wave Sub’ and consequent investment raise. Good Shout Studio worked with them to position their brand; refine their messaging and website and build a high impact communications campaign. I subsequently media trained their management team; produced a new industry report and digital content including a creative corporate animation to bring their technology to life. We then executed a successful integrated media relations and digital campaign. For more information go to www.marinepowersystems.co.uk

SOLARCENTURY: PUBLIC RELATIONS MANAGER

Founded in 1998, Solarcentury has been around since the early days of the solar industry and is part of the rapid evolution that has made PV the mainstream energy source that it is today. It is one of the most respected solar companies in the world and is in business for a purpose: to make a meaningful difference in the fight against climate change through the widespread adoption of solar power. As Public Relations Manager from 2006 to 2012 I led cross company brand development and messaging, launched Solarcentury into European markets and built and executed integrated media and digital B2B and B2C strategies including "We Support Solar", to secure solar Feed-in tariffs (FIT) and wider policy support in the UK. FIT lifted the UK solar market from 8MW solar capacity in 2010 to 80MW in 2011, with 13 GW of solar powering the UK in August 2019. I also co-launched SolarAid, the international solar charity enabling energy access in the developing world. For more information go to www.solarcentury.com
